Sort of. If you are using static VIPA and have SOURCEVIPA specified,
then the outbound source address will be the last VIPA address specified
before a real interface. Example:
OSA1 10.1.1.1
OSA2 10.1.2.1
VIPA1 10.100.1.1
OSA3 10.1.3.1
OSA4 10.1.4.1
VIAP2 10.200.1.1
OSA5 10.1.5.1
OSA6 10.1.6.1
Based on route statments the following source address will be used if
route is via source address used will be
OSA1 10.1.1.1
OSA2 10.1.2.1
OSA3 10.100.1.1
OSA4 10.100.1.1
OSA5 10.200.1.1
OSA6 10.200.1.1
That I am aware of there is NO way to specify what the source address is
for FTP client. I wish there was, but if there is I can't find it.

I'm confused. FTP uses whichever link that has a path for the target IP

HOME addresses apply only to inbound traffic. In a static environment,
outbound traffic is routed according to GATEWAY or equivalent
statements. In a dynamic environment, the link used is the one that
connects to a router that knows how to reach the target address.
HTH.

Subject: Alternate home for zOS FTP Client ...?
(Crossposted here and to IBMTCP-L)
One of our clients runs a single TCPIP stack with multiple HOME ip
addresses.
Is there a way -- without a second stack and CINET -- to cause the zOS
FTP client to use a link other than the PRIMARYINTERFACE when opening an
outbound session?
Thanks in advance,
Tom Sims
